Unlike pop culture, at CrossFit we are more impressed with what the body can do than how it looks. A strong body in motion is the more beautiful than a thin body posed and air brushed. During the air-gasping, grunting, weight-throwing, sweat-flying middle of a workout, the size and shape of our bodies (unless in relation to proper movement) is simply not a focus. Anyone who is concerned about jiggle during a pull up or worried about whether or not their belly rolls over the waistline during a deadlift isn't working hard enough. It is true, however, regardless of what your goals are, if you come into the gym and put in the hard work, your body will change. You will become stronger, faster and fitter. Looking good just happens to be icing on the cake.

SPECIAL 15:30 FRIDAY WOD TOMORROW!

BRING A FRIEND TO SATURDAY'S WOD!

UPDATE - WEDNESDAY

My flight got in very late last night so Reese and I did not arrive home till midnight. We slept in till 09:30. Apologizes to everyone who were waiting on me this morning. To complicate things, I did not have Internet till this afternoon so I could not update the blog.

Due to the weather (Typhoon) there will not be a WOD tomorrow (Thursday) but you are all challenged to do 100 Burpees for time at home. Try and get you kids to count for you or maybe join in.

I WILL BE HAVING NORMAL CLASSES ON FRIDAY, 08:15, 09:00 and a special 15:30.

I happy to be back and I'm ready for a good WOD.
